¹ Hey, boys! It's Paul, Silas, and Timothy again.

This goes out to all the cowboys and cowgirls in Thessalonica who ride for the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

² We are hoping and praying God is giving you the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Getting Back On

³ We can't help but be proud of y'all because of your faith and love for one another. ⁴ We pass along how proud we are of you to the other outfits riding for the same brand we do. We commend y'all for always finishing what you've started and getting back on no matter how hard life has bucked you off. ⁵ And God is going to use these hard times y'all been experiencing to show his judgment on this world and that y'all are worthy of the great things he has planned for your eternity on a thousand hills. ⁶ He is a just God and will pay back all those who have hurt his kiddos. ⁷ And just when you think you can't handle anymore, he's gonna come riding in and help you. He's done the same for us over and over again. You'll know when he comes to give you relief because you'll see him riding back over the hill. But he won't be alone! He'll bring with him the purifying fire and all his powerful angels. ⁸ There will be a reckoning waiting on those who have worshipped the world and its ways instead of accepting his grace and forgiveness. ⁹ They'll realize too late how much they missed when they are cut off forever from God's love as a result of their hard hearts. ¹⁰ He's coming back to prove our faith is real and to show the world who the real boss is. He will welcome you into his arms because you have seen, heard, and believed his message.

¹¹ We are always in God's ear that he will make you worthy cowboys by his power. We pray that he will make happen all the good things y'all have wanted to achieve through faith. ¹² We pray this, not so that you will be glorified, but so that he will. All the glory and respect belongs to the grace of God through Jesus Christ.
